The Peasant
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I must have said
Sometimes I feel adrift
You reveal your ways
At sometime today
How did I get here
And where will I leave
Oh, the peasant in me
So easily deceived
Sometime soon
The fool next to you
The wall you never noticed
Collecting your dust
Collecting your favors
That you, you believe are stolen
Oh, somebody will notice
And you'll be the one so easily deceived
So easily
So easily
So easily
How did I get here
And where will I leave
Oh, the peasant in me
So easily deceived
